January 18, 2024 ALVA Yachts: The Next Generation of Electric Yachts

Alva Yachts are Coming to North America

YachtSalesInternational.com is North America’s pioneer of eco-friendly boating technology specializing in hybrid and electric ingenuity. With over 5 years’ experience of educating customers and marketing efforts, we have a large customer base of electric/hybrid enthusiasts. We are pleased to announce our newest partnership with Alva Yachts to provide this new generation of yachts to North America.

ALVA Yachts brings a logical progression in size/range capabilities from our current electric/hybrid offerings. The shallow cruising waters in South Florida, as well as the Caribbean and Bahamas makes catamarans an attractive solution.

ALVA Yachts is our next step in offering a line of yachts that align with our value proposition to provide North America with a sustainable and eco-friendly solution to yachting. As our climate changes, we also must change. Alva provides a sensible solution to emission free cruising with comfort and longevity. Living off the grid, silently becomes the new normal with Alva Yachts. Ocean Eco 55 will arrive in time for the 2021 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show followed by the Ocean Eco 60 debuting at the 2022 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

Like the automotive industry which progressed from combustion to hybrid to electric power, we see unlimited potential as marine manufacturers embrace the technology and incorporate into their vessels. ECO and technology enthusiasts alike embrace the lifestyle of silent cruising, mooring and are thrilled to pair their yachts with a wide selection of electric/hybrid dinghies, jet skis, and other water toys.

THE ALVA VISION: GUIDING LUXURY TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY

Alva Yachts is determined to improve the society we live in. We are on a journey towards sustainable, avant-garde electric yachting.

Today, electricity is not always generated in a sustainable way – but it could be. Elements, materials, manufacturing, transportation and the usage of yachts are all areas that need improvement. We do not have all the answers today, but it is our mission to tackle these issues and consequently improve the way we will live tomorrow.

Climate action through leading the development of new technologies, embracing solutions for a circular economy and conducting our business in an ethical and responsible way, are what we are all about. We constantly strive for new, greener technology that improves performance to be used in our yachts. Our Solar Roof System is one example of our efforts, but we are fully aware that there is still much work to be done.

Battery circularity will become a key focus in the yachting industry and Alva Yachts is committed to guiding the industry forward in minimizing the environmental impact of batteries. Together with driving technology, the modern approach to ownership in Alva Yachts will help to transform the yachting retail industry and create endless opportunities for sustainable business solutions.

With our connections to Fisher Panda and Volkswagen and our shared technologies, we have a strong foundation for our sustainability targets moving forward. The dream of a fully electric future will not happen overnight, but together we will move in the right direction and without compromise. Society as a whole is responsible for the journey towards a sustainable future and ALVA YACHTS will work relentlessly to accelerate the shift to clean electric yachting.

BUSINESS & HISTORY

Alva Yachts was developed in early 2020 from the former company PICA Yachts. At this point, Pica has already had 6 years of experience in the development, construction and marketing of smaller electric driven sailing and motor yachts. By the beginning of 2020, over 40 boats had been sold and have been used by many satisfied customers.

Since the founding of ALVA Yachts, the company owners start building super-efficient luxury yachts to meet the growing market for environmental friendly living space on the water.

The yacht design and development is carried out by the renowned design office HENNDESIGN. Its owner Mr. Holger Henn is also a co-founder of ALVA YACHTS.
